Scientific objectives
The name of the team illustrates our desire to explore the links between linguistic systems and language usage, either by relying on descriptions of corpus data to understand linguistic systems more fully, or by challenging certain theoretical models with different cases of known language use. Indeed, what strongly unites all the members of the team is a shared interest for studying corpora, with differences regarding the linguistic data considered (oral, written, situations or textual genres), or their method of elaboration (transcription methods, annotation levels, more or less "controlled" data). Within the team, some studies prioritise the description and analysis of various linguistic data collected in the field, demonstrating our desire to expand our knowledge of linguistic and sociolinguistic uses of language.
The research fields represented in the group are varied, as they touch on all fields of linguistics: syntax, pragmatics, semantics, phonology, prosody, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, and lexicology. The members of the team share their interests in the interfaces between these different domains, such as for example the study of the links between syntax, prosody and discourse, between morphology and phonology, between syntax and semantics, and between semantics and pragmatics.

Beyond this plurality of areas, the angles of approach are equally diverse:
- modelling ;
- sociolinguistic dynamics and social aspects;
- acquisition (L2, bilingualism, etc.);
- comparison (inter- and intra-linguistic);
- diachronic dimension.
The languages studied are mainly French, English and Creole, examined in their different varieties. The various research fields and angles of approach mentioned above also result in studies involving other languages, most often with a view to comparison: for example, German, Mandarin Chinese or certain Romance languages other than French.

17/01/2020 : Cristel Portes et James German, enseignants-chercheurs à Aix-Marseille Université et rattachés au Laboratoire Parole et Langage, viennent de publier un article scientifique dans la revue officielle de l'Association for Laboratory Phonology sur les indices implicites de la région géographique qui peuvent influencer l'interprétation d'un contour intonatif. La théorie des exemplaires est utilisée pour modéliser comment cet effet est lié au degré de contact d'un individu avec le français continental. Références : Portes, C., & German, J.
